Patent CA-2433053-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PETELA GRAZYNA
IPC: B01F33/40
Filed: 2003-06-20
Abstract: The present invention provides a process to create without mechanical agitation a zone of low shear, low turbulence flow pattern within a continuous phase liquid contained in a vessel by a continuous or periodic injection of an inert, immiscible, low density fluid, preferably gas, into the liquid to form such a flow pattern, recovering the fluid above the free surface of the liquid, and preferably re-injecting it into the liquid.  The invention is particularly useful if the continuous liquid contains a dispersed phase which should be distributed within the continuous liquid without excessive particle agglomeration or breakups in order to largely preserve the initial particle size distribution, or if the initial particle size distribution needs to be modified by controlled breakups of the largest particles, particularly during the subsequent batch processing.

Title: Method of using underbalanced well data for seismic attribute analysis
Inventor: CADE RANDALL
IPC: G01V1/30
Filed: 2003-09-26
Abstract: The present invention generally provides methods of geological analysis. The method includes collecting wellbore data from a well undergoing underbalanced drilling. The wellbore data is then correlated to a seismic data to predict geological properties away from the wellbore. In one embodiment, correlating the seismic data with the wellbore data involves converting the seismic data and the wellbore data to a one-dimensional numerical series, respectively. The two respective one-dimensional numerical series are compared to each other to produce a mathematical formulation relating the two series. In another embodiment, the wellbore data may be separated into different categories or classifications and individually compared to the seismic data. Preferably, the categories are compared to two or more variations of seismic data and their attributes to derive at unique "signatures" for the respective category. The signatures may then be used to produce "classification" maps of the wellbore data.

Title: Methods and systems for authentication of a user for sub-locations of a network location
Inventor: PEARO CHRIS
IPC: G06F21/31
Filed: 2003-11-10
Abstract: Methods and systems authenticate a user of a sub-location of a network location by using a first cookie for authentication within the network location, such as a domain of the world wide web, and also use a second cookie for authentication within a sub-location of the network location. When the user attempts to visit a network location or sub-location within the network location, the server of the network location authenticates the user by obtaining a previously stored cookie from the user's computer and validating it for the network location. Upon being authenticated by the validation, a cookie for a sub-location within the network location is generated for the user and provided to the user's computer. When the user attempts to access the sub-location within the network location, the cookie provided to the user's computer for the sub-location is obtained and validated to authenticate the user for the sub-location.
